Norfolk with Roy and Jane Atkins

The Speyside Wildlife Trip Report

Roy and Jane are looking forward to returning to Norfolk during the winter of 2024 and during this chat they remember their highlights from past trips including the lovely hotel, a great group and the various birds they saw. Birds included a superb flock of Common Cranes, Hawfinches, three species of egrets, Golden Plovers, Shorelark, Water Pipit, Iceland Gull and best of all, a stunning Red-breasted Goose. A Barn Owl treated them most morning as it hunted in fields beside the hotel, Marsh Harriers were in amazing numbers and they saw huge numbers of waders and wildlfowl, including a truly massive flock of Pink-footed Geese. There were lots of Brent Geese, Marsh Tits and good views of a Water Rail, plus Chinese Water Deer and Muntjacs - so many species that those living in the north rarely get to see - they even saw a mole!
